In reference to E-bay, my question is why should the burden of trust be put on the purchaser. If I have a reasonably good feedback record , why does the seller in most cases not only want my check in his hand but wants to wait 10 days for it to clear before shipping the goods.
I suppose all sellers are honest and all purchasers for the most part are deemed to be less trustworthy.
Lets face it if you have made numerous purchases on E-bay you to have been scorched if not burned once or twice.
Shouldn't this be a two way street, especially if the seller is a club member bound by the same code of ethics that we are.
